Pros

"Fun*" buildings, catered (pay-deducted) lunches, cheap insurance, stock options (if that's important to you).

Cons

Toxic management and upper management in most departments, especially IT and Security. Very "culty" atmosphere. They bribe employees to make positive social media posts. They also threaten individuals leaving the company with litigation if they talk to any current employees or answer any questions from current employees about their new job. Lastly, hearing about the return-to-office notice verbiage, notices, town halls, and internal statements made by upper management and the C-levels caused my blood to curdle.

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
